"This is a TV show scenario which has NEVER happened in real life, and has an infinitely small percent of a chance of ever happening. And I will make certain that torture is clearly NOT a legal option for American federal agents.
That said, IF all the stars lined up one day and we had a Jack Bauer type of federal agent leaning over a detainee, with 10 minutes to go before the bomb went off, and they needed to know the location, AND they had tried ever other option, go ahead and pull his fingernails out!
After the fact, if it is shown that 'Jack', through acting illegally actually got a quick confession somehow from a committed Islamic terrorist at the last second and he prevented another 9/11, he would be issued a speedy Presidential pardon. But that wouldn't alter the law against torture as a principle for 99.999% of the time.
